Instructions

Cream butter and sugar in a large mixing bowl until very fluffy (about 10 minutes). Add eggs one at a time. Mix well. Add lemon zest, juice and baking powder. Fold in flour just until smooth. Stir in apples until evenly blended.

To prepare the swirl, combine sugar, cinnamon, flour and butter and stir until smooth.

Bake for 80 to 90 minutes or until golden and center springs to the touch. Set aside to cool.

To prepare the glaze, combine confectioners’ sugar, lemon juice and milk. Add more milk or more confectioners’ sugar to reach desired thickness. Glide a knife gently around the edges of the cake and turn onto a small platter. Drizzle glaze on top.
